Invisible, Not Invincible

Chapter 17: Hi Doll

I dont know where my sudden boldness came from, but the next thing I knew, I was reaching my hand out and pushing a fallen hair out of Bucky's face.

Bucky inhaled a deep breath. Raising his head, turning, as if he was looking around, despite being blindfolded.

"Hello?" He said, wanting to know who was in the room.

"Hi.." I said weakly, but still loud enough for him to hear.

Bucky's lips parted. His face was towards me, so I saw his eyebrows pop above the eyemask in surprise.

"Hi....." He said surprised.

I let out a small laugh.

"You don't need this..."

I removed my hand from beneath his and brought both hands to his face.

The feeling of my hands barely grazing his face, he flinched a little on reflex.

He relaxed and leaned into my hands.

I slowly lifted the mask from his face. His beautiful face.

As I retreated my hands back towards me, I watched as his eyes slowly opened.

His gaze rose up to meet mine.

Those steel blue eyes sent a shiver down my spine.

"Hi.." I said with a slight smirk, suddenly most of my bravery had vanished.

A smile crept onto Bucky's face.

"Hi, Doll."
